I like fishing so yes I do.

Tactical Bassin is informative, but man do they product whore everything with Tackle Warehouse links. Some of the videos are purely an excuse to post affiliate links for products and that gets annoying. Just the way Youtube works these days though, I guess.

LFG is my favorite personality! Tactical Bassin used to be the best on youtube......BUT..... i feel like they(TB) are running out of content.Videos are pretty repetitive....keitechs....LV500....$1000 combos...we will post the links below...etc... I think that is why you see them putting out so many gear videos with TW links as stated above. I�m sure these links generate the money they use to buy all of the tackle that they buy. I want Matt and Tim to survive and IMO they need to get off of clear lake and head east and make videos showing how they attack new bodies of water. Most youtube fisherman can�t relate to fishing a lake like clearlake everyday with $1000 combos. The fisherman that binge watches them is going to be entry level guys trying to figure stuff out. I wish these guys would come out of their shell and maybe do some videos with LFG to gain a new audience and maybe piggyback his success in this part of the country.
Seems like youtube is demonetizing fishing and hunting videos so these guys are going to have to stick together. Nothing but respect for TB.

I feel like I have a personal relationship with the Rackley family after all
of his videos the last year. Just great people...

It�s so crazy to me to see how many people subscribe to guys like one rod one reel. My 8 year could create better fishing content....

I think the reason Matt and Tim don't venture far from home more often is because they have jobs other than YouTube.

and a baby...

Maybe you should. We are more relatable than most of the pros. Most of them are feeding you the same info and pumping sponsors in your face over and over.

No. You guys really aren�t.

These kinda of post remind me of the negative comments in the videos but those guys still continue to watch and know the names of the "youtubers"

I started watching LFG videos last year, went through bunch of his fishing videos and his bout with the brain tumor. He does a great job of editing his content and presenting it in an entertaining way.. which is why I watch. I think that it is really cool that he is able to make a living doing something he obviously enjoys and is pretty accomplished at doing.. making short videos about fishing, his life, his wife.. etc. It was incredible how his subscribers came to his rescue on the brain tumor thing.
Lunkers I'm warming up to.. he has come a long way over the years.
The absolute king of Youtube in my opinion is Matt Carriker.. not much fishing stuff but he has 3 channels.. Off The Ranch, Demolition Ranch, and Vet Ranch. Really good at editing and making entertaining videos.

Yeah I know they have Full time gigs. It�s amazing they still release 3 vids a week! I�m just looking from the outside rooting for their success long term. It just seems like they are running out of ideas for vids.

I've watched virtually every episode of Tactical Bassin and even though they frequently fish with upper end gear they go out of their way to present a wide variety of other very economical options. As far as getting off Clear Lake...this year they made runs through the Great Lakes region and the South. That had to be difficult for a couple of family guys with jobs in California. It absolutely doesn't bother me that they are making $$ by directing me the TW to buy the products they are reviewing. It just saves me the time of going there and looking them up. At least they are not prostituting themselves to push one or two specific product lines and/or companies.

Now that was funny.... Someone needs to pinch you, wake up...

So you mean to tell me you're more like Ike, KVD or Swindle that's running all over the country cashing 10k checks and endorsing companies to pay the bills??? Maybe you're the average tournament guy like 98% of us on this forum who loves to compete or just enjoys the outdoors.
